Recruiting: Formatting Job Posts to Attract More Applicants

How to format jobs to attract more applicants.

Table of Contents

OVERVIEW

  • Jobs can be better formatted to attract more applicants.
  • Attractive jobs descriptions allow you to put your best foot forward from the very beginning and show candidates that you are as serious about their candidacy as they are about their job search. 

Important: Whether you are creating a new job or Editing an Existing Job Description, if you are Copying and Pasting into Fields or anywhere else outside of Recruiting, we recommend clicking Remove All Formatting before adding new formatting. 

PROCESS

  • To format an existing job, follow the same steps you do to Edit a Job Description.
  • Use the tool bar to add your formatting. The buttons for adding bold and italics in this editor are similar to those in Microsoft Word.
  • If you have bulleted content in your job description, you must use the bullet point icon in the editor. Otherwise, your jobs do not display properly because we use an HTML editor.

Follow these steps to format an existing job: 

  1. In the Recruiting editor, highlight the content you want to add a bulleted list to.
  2. Click the either the ordered list icon (with numbered steps) or the bullet point icon.
